G i c l é e

Fine art editions in which waterbased inks are applied to paper using a precise digital capture of the original image. Giclée prints are known for their brilliant color range and the details and subtleties they capture. Iris© prints are often referred to as Giclee prints. Giclee (zhee-clay) is a French term meaning "spray of ink." An Iris © printer creates images by spraying one million droplets of ink per second through each of its four nozzles. An Iris © digital print has an apparent resolution of 1,800 dpi, which is higher than a traditional lithographic print and has a greater color range than serigraphy. Mission Art Press' newest Iris© Giclée editions take advantage of this technology.

L i t h o g r a p h i c    P r i n t

Print artwork that is based on the water-repellent properties of oil-based inks. Lithography involves applying these inks to a dampened image-bearing plate that is then pressed onto paper. Offset Lithography is a type of high-volume commercial print designed for the reproduction of thousand of sheets of paper. Plates are made by an electro-mechanical process wherein the image is offset from a metal plate onto a rubber blanket and onto the sheet. "Graduation Day Santa Clara" is an offset lithographic edition.

Preamble

The Internet, including online computer communications, has become increasingly important to marketers' activities, as they provide exchanges and access to markets worldwide. The ability to interact with stakeholders has created new marketing opportunities and risks that are not currently specifically addressed in the American Marketing Association Code of Ethics. The American Marketing Association Code of Ethics for Internet marketing provides additional guidance and direction for ethical responsibility in this dynamic area of marketing. The American Marketing Association is committed to ethical professional conduct and has adopted these principles for using the Internet, including on-line marketing activities utilizing network computers.

3. Awareness of changes in regulations related to Internet marketing.
4. Effective communication to organizational members on risks and policies related to Internet marketing, when appropriate.
5. Organizational commitment to ethical Internet practices communicated to employees, customers and relevant stakeholders.

Privacy

Information collected from customers should be confidential and used only for expressed purposes. All data, especially confidential customer data, should be safeguarded against unauthorized access. The expressed wishes of others should be respected with regard to the receipt of unsolicited e-mail messages.

Ownership

Information obtained from the Internet sources should be properly authorized and documented. Information ownership should be safeguarded and respected. Marketers should respect the integrity and ownership of computer and network systems.

Access

Marketers should treat access to accounts, passwords, and other information as confidential, and only examine or disclose content when authorized by a responsible party. The integrity of others' information systems should be respected with regard to placement of information, advertising or messages.

BBB Code of e-commerce guidelines

NOTE: The Code contains practical, performance-based e-commerce guidelines. These guidelines were designed to allow online businesses to take advantage of technology and to foster innovation while adhering to fair business practices that provide truthful and accurate information to online consumers. These voluntary guidelines represent sound online advertising and selling practices that the Better Business Bureau and BBBOnLine believe will boost consumer trust and confidence in online commerce. However, the Code does not address whether the laws, if any, of any particular jurisdiction apply to online advertising or transactions. Online businesses are therefore advised to make a determination that their practices are in compliance with applicable laws. We encourage broad compliance with this voluntary Code. We encourage all online businesses to adopt these guidelines. Our BBBOnLine Reliability participants are expected to adhere to these guidelines.
